Customer Reviews

EXCELLENT!

Phil Goodstein is incredibly knowledgeable of Denver ('The Queen City') and her fascinating history. He is a Denver historian and conducts many fascinating and different kinds of tours of downtown Denver from freeu.com. He knows absolutely everything about Denver's history! I highly recommend this book!! Also highly recommended: The Ghosts of Denver: Capitol Hill

Great read for those interested in Denver History

This book is very interesting, and really does a good job of differentiating from urban legend to factual occurences. It is a very entertaining history of Denver politics and social behaviors.

What the mayors office won't tell you

Some things never change, and Denver is one of them. Millions on an unneeded railroad spur, and billions on an overdue and over priced airport. See how it all started, and if you can make, come take Mr. Goodstein's walking tour of the same title, you won't be sorry.

good background of Denver Co.

I read this book a year ago, and found it quite interesting. It gives a brief history of early Denver, the railroad, and politics. The book carries you to around 1993, with all the stories of crime, politics, prostitution and general social facts and fiction of the last 100 years. I recommend it to any one with in interest in such things or who may want a good laugh.
